cable jetting and camera gloves

12-20-2012, 08:46 AM

What are the best all around gloves for the job. The company I worked for before I moved used these yellow gloves with rubber bits all over the fingers. I believe they were called grizzley gloves. Has anyone else used these before?

ok for drum machines, but don't held up well on the high speed sectional machines. also pretty stiff for handling small jetter hoses.

i like the feel of leather welding gloves for my sectional cables. and for jetting, unless you're wearing an armored glove, all you need is a good gripping rubberized glove to keep you dry and add grip when pulling. camera i usually wear nytril gloves, sometimes the same jetting rubber gloves.

I use the one ricks uses for jetting(cuz that what I learned I jetting 101) I usually use surgical for camera unless it gets involved then I use the yellow leather ones u get at Costco in a 3 pack (the ones the Cowboys use) for drain work (I'm a drum dude) double palm leather. Those ugly gloves are pathetic. To hard, I think co want their employees to wear them cuz its harder to work a cable properly, hence more dig ups etc, or maybe safer, or a win win. Smile

Theyre real good for running lines that have grease problems. Def agree though theyre stiff untill theyre broke in and, you cant feel the cable to well compared to leather work gloves. I just wanted to see what everyones thoughts were on gloves and if there are better gloves then the ones I'm gonna be using.
